Netflix buys Scots comic book firm Millarworld

A Scottish comic book company has been bought by streaming giant Netflix. "Netflix is the future and Millarworld couldn't have a better home." Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos said Mr Millar was "As close as you can get to a modern day Stan Lee" - the co-creator of Spider-Man and other Marvel characters. Netflix and Mr Millar will bring Millarworld's portfolio to life through films, series and kids' shows available exclusively to Netflix members globally. Millarworld is to continue to create and publish new stories and character franchises under the Netflix label.
